@william quite on the contrary, there are hundreds if not thousands of wind tunnels in the states, Any engineering university worth its name, and with an effective R & D program needs at least a wind tunnel, and its not as rocket sciency as it seems. Just a big fan and lots of sensors, and a smoke signal for the kicks. Without a wind tunnel, performance cars, boats, wind turbines, aeroplanes and many other moving parts cannot be designed to effective performance. Onto answering you., How about you describe what you intend to achieve, Maybe software like Pro Engineer and simulation based apps may be able to give at least theoretical performance data enough to burn a few grand doing the concepts for real world testing... ama?

Good people, Might there be a "wind tunnel" somewhere in .ke?

Very expensive. Even USA shut down their wind tunnel. Boeing does their wind tunnel test in Europe now. The fact a country with an air-plane manufacturing sector could not keep their tunnel going just tell you how unlikely most of the other countries would entertain such an idea

By wind tunnel I mean a device with which one can test the aerodynamic properties of body kits, spoilers, splitters, diffusers etc on cars...
